David-san, thanks for the explanation.
It seems that UK law is basically the same concept as EU.
I have done some research on the laws of Asian countries and it seems
that at least Korea has almost the same concept as Japan. Taiwan's
copyright law is also similar. The moral rights of authors are d

This isn't safe, as some countries have more economic rights than this.
E.g. I think, for the UK, one would need to add "Use" in relation to a
computer program. You need to be a "lawful user before you can

I thought the reason behind the EU having moral rights was to create
rights that could not be contracted out of. For example, noting that
computer programs are exempt, the original author of a work (not done

On the other hand, I don't understand why more people don't specifically
mention them. It took literally 3 additional words the last time I tried.

Hi,
I am concerned that BlueOak only specifies "infringe that
contributor's copyright".
Since copyright and moral rights are two different rights, I believe
that in the case of BlueOak's clause, the right to exercise moral
